Negre has the sort of build and carrying ability I thought we were looking for in a new 8, but I think I was a bit hasty suggesting that Cassiem won't necessarily supply what I we want.

Although not huge he looks very tough and wiry and his highlights show him carrying and keeping possession in some difficult positions - not spectacular but maybe a better complement to what we will have next season - leave the sensational runs to Blade etc - Cassiem will do the nitty gritty and give 100% throughout the game just as important.

Yes Ffidel he has a lot of grunt for his build, always seems to make yards and retain possession. Another big plus is that he has a huge engine which he will need with the way we play. Getting quite excited for next season already.

I hope I'm wrong because I think casseim would be a very good addition but I can't help but think that were getting mixed up with another region and he's signed for the ospreys or something. I can't see us signing casseim and wells, out of the two id rather casseim, don't think we've got enough nwq spots for both unless someone is leaving that we don't know about.

The background to this rumour is that a Cheetahs fan on Twitter said that Cassiem was moving to a Welsh PRO14 team. Obviously this alerted Welsh Rugby twitter and this developed into them naming the Scarlets specifically as a landing spot.It’s also been noted he follows the Scarlets on Twitter (only welsh region he follows, though he does follow Bernard Jackman) and followed the Scarlets on Instagram recently (again, only team he follows, not just in Wales but the PRO14).
